95: Technological killer

Lü Tie sensed that something was amiss.

Although Liu Jiangyi said he wasn't here on official business, he immediately asked about an eighth-grade Magical Artifact.

He even kept insisting on going to the basement.

To say he wasn't here with a purpose? Only a ghost would believe that!

If Liu Jiangyi had taken his time and followed the usual procedures, Lü Tie might have been able to probe his intentions and think of countermeasures.

But Liu Jiangyi completely disregarded the usual approach.

This left Lü Tie somewhat at a loss for what to do.

Lü Tie had naturally heard about Liu Jiangyi.

He truly did not dare to easily offend this individual who had stirred up the Lower City in a single day.

With this thought, Lü Tie quickly stepped forward and said with a forced smile, "Director Liu is right, this old man does indeed have a Divine Pill Furnace, but it is not here right now."

"How about this, you don't have to do that. If you wait a little longer, I will retrieve the Divine Pill Furnace and have someone personally deliver it to your residence?"

Lü Tie's attitude was very clear.

He was trying to bribe him!

However!

Liu Jiangyi wouldn't accept it.

He sneered, "What does Family Head Lü mean by this?"

"I merely wish to see this Pill Furnace, I certainly don't mean to take it."

"Are you trying to bribe me?"

Whoosh!

Lü Tie's face instantly changed, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

This was clearly an attempt to cause trouble!

Lü Tie decided not to use a conciliatory approach anymore. He immediately changed his expression and said in a deep voice, "What does Director Liu mean?"

"Do you think my Lü Family is easy to bully, coming to my door to cause trouble?"

Liu Jiangyi glanced sideways at the basement door, "Family Head Lü, you dare to covet the City Lord's possessions, and you're still afraid of me, Liu, coming to cause trouble?"

"What City Lord's possessions? This old man doesn't know!" Lü Tie instantly became agitated.

At the same time, he was greatly alarmed in his heart.

Only he knew that thing was hidden in the basement.

How could Liu Jiangyi possibly know?

"Ya Ya."

"Coming!"

Ya Ya stepped out, appearing directly behind Lü Tie, and firmly gripped Lü Tie's neck with her hand.

All of this happened in a flash of lightning.

Lü Tie, an eighth-grade Martial Arts Grandmaster, didn't even have a chance to resist.

"You… are you going to war with my Lü Family?" Lü Tie panicked.

He had never expected the woman beside Liu Jiangyi to be so terrifying.

Liu Jiangyi said playfully, "Family Head Lü, it's come to this, let's just be frank."

"I said I wasn't here on official business this time, and I won't tell anyone about this, but you shouldn't keep hiding things from me either."

"Hmph! What if you kill this old man? The Middle City Lü Family will surely avenge me!"

Lü Tie remained unyielding.

"Is that so?"

Liu Jiangyi smiled faintly, then took out a palm-sized grenade from his System space.

"A grenade?" Lü Tie was stunned.

They were all Martial Arts Grandmaster-level powerhouses, was he pulling out a grenade as a joke?

Liu Jiangyi didn't say much. Instead, he placed the grenade into Lü Tie's hand, "Feel what's inside this."

Lü Tie was puzzled but still used his Spiritual Qi to sense it.

Whoosh!

The next moment!

That terrifying energy almost made him wet his pants!

"This… this is a compressed hydrogen bomb!?"

"You do have some discerning eyes." Liu Jiangyi took back the grenade and said calmly, "With this item in my hand, do you think your Middle City Lü Family would dare to touch me?"

"You!"

Lü Tie's face was full of apprehension. He took a deep breath and said, "Even if you have this item, do you dare to use it in Tianjiang City?"

"Once the people of the Upper City find out you have such a terrifying thing, they will definitely move to eliminate you!"

"Is that so?"

Liu Jiangyi flipped his hand, and ten identical grenades appeared in his grasp.

"Ten!?"

Lü Tie's jaw almost dropped.

Liu Jiangyi said proudly, "These ten little gadgets are enough to make the entire Tianjiang City be buried with me. Even the City Lord of Tianjiang City, can he withstand these ten?"

"My life, Liu Jiangyi, is cheap and worthless, but those big figures certainly wouldn't be willing to fight to the death with me, would they?"

Lü Tie was completely despairing.

He had never expected that Liu Jiangyi not only brought an extremely powerful enforcer.

He even held such a terrifying super weapon in his hand!

Although this thing was a product of technology, its power was no less than a ninth-grade Magical Artifact!

Too ruthless!

"Have you decided whether to die or confess now?"

Liu Jiangyi waved his hand, signaling Ya Ya to let go.

Ya Ya released Lü Tie, who then collapsed directly onto a chair.

He said with a bitter smile, "I admit, I sent people to steal Luo Shan's Magic Treasure."

"How did you know he had an eighth-grade Magic Treasure?"

"Because… because…" Lü Tie's face was extremely grim, and he stammered, unable to speak.

"Speak! You have no room to bargain!"

"Because my Lü Family… is a spy for Hantie City…"

Hantie City?

Good heavens!

Just how many spies from other cities were there within this Tianjiang City?

However, what shocked Liu Jiangyi the most was.

According to Lü Tie, not only were there human settlements within this Dimensional Trial Grounds, but there seemed to be many of them?

"Since you knew Luo Shan had an eighth-grade Magic Treasure, you must also know that he is a Stormwind City spy, right?"

"Of course." Liu Jiangyi nodded.

Lü Tie said bitterly, "Actually, many years ago, we knew that the Luo Family were also spies, but the Luo Family didn't know that our Lü Family were also spies."

"We knew that every spy had many treasures on them, so we found someone to steal Luo Shan's Magic Treasure."

"Of course, our Lü Family wasn't coveting this Magic Treasure. After all, with such a powerful Magic Treasure, the Lü Family wouldn't dare to use it, otherwise, its origin couldn't be explained."

"Our goal was to use this Magic Treasure to threaten Luo Shan and make him work for my Lü Family."

"It's just that we hadn't had time to go find Luo Shan yet when you came looking for us."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jiangyi suddenly understood.

"Is it because of the struggle between the Lü Family and the Lin Family?"

"Exactly." Lü Tie nodded, "The Lin Family and the Lü Family's recent struggle has reached a fever pitch. We must secure any force that can help the Lü Family."

"The Luo Family also has backers in the Middle City. We not only need to win over Luo Shan but also rely on him to win over the forces behind him."

"The Lü Family has developed to its peak in the Middle City. To enter the Upper City, we must annex other Families; there is no other choice."

Liu Jiangyi sneered, "Your Lü Family is truly audacious."

"Don't you know that the higher you go, the easier it is to be exposed?"

"Once your Lü Family's spy identity is exposed, your entire Lü Family, thousands of people, probably won't survive, will they?"

Lü Tie said bitterly, "Hantie City's tasks for us are getting heavier and heavier. If we don't follow their instructions, City Lord Chen will not let us off."

"City Lord Chen? Chen Yuan?" Liu Jiangyi was greatly surprised.

"Oh? You know City Lord Chen's name? Could it be that you are also from Hantie City?"

Lü Tie was overjoyed.

He had been forced to reveal these things.

But if Liu Jiangyi was also a spy from another city, then he wouldn't be afraid of Liu Jiangyi daring to use the Lü Family's spy identity to cause trouble!
